Welcome to the online home of Holcombe Funeral
Home, Inc. of Union, South Carolina. Providing quality funeral care and
services since 1949.

Located at 310 West South Street in the heart of
Union’s South Street Historic District, our facility was built in the
mid- 1870's as the residence of the William A. Nicholson family by James
Grant, both Scottish immigrants.

The home remained in the Nicholson family
until the death of their son, Allan, a newspaper publisher in the early
1950's. The home was purchased in 1953 by Irene Fowler Holcombe, widow
of our founder Samuel Ratchford Holcombe. She and her children, Gladys,
Billy, Faye, and August, remodeled the home utilizing the upstairs for
their residence and the main level for their business.

In 1965, the family added a chapel to the
original home, doubling the size of the facility. A large, handicapped
accessible foyer and offices were added in 1985. With the acquisition of
neighboring properties, adequate, well-lighted parking was made
available behind the funeral home. Realizing the need to better serve
our Jonesville and northern Union County patrons, Holcombe’s Jonesville
Chapel was established in the historic Fairforest Presbyterian Church
located at 145 Hames Avenue, Jonesville, S. C. in June, 1992.

Although our founders Samuel Ratchford (1950)
and Irene Fowler Holcombe (1982), along with three of their children
August (2001), Gladys (2002) and Billy (2005) are now deceased, our
business continues to thrive and prosper thanks to the wonderful people
of Union County, our friends. The S. R. Holcombe Funeral Home is still a
family owned and operated business with a grateful third and forth
generation assisting and serving the citizens of Union County.

We appreciate the wisdom, ethics, responsibility
and heritage that has been passed to us by our grandparents and parents.
We seek to provide high quality, dignified services to the families of
our communities, realizing that we must meet the personal needs of an
ever-changing society. As we approach our 60th anniversary (May, 2009),
we say THANK YOU for the faith, trust, and confidence placed in our
family since 1949.
